Why is Outlook starting Automatically with Windows?

I have a windows 8 pc that has Office 2013 Home and Business on it. When your log on Outlook will start up and only show reminders and then a min or two later it closes. I cannot figure out how this is happening and why when it starts it only
shows the reminders. I've search in all the run keys in Registry, looked in task scheduler, looked in programs->startup and look in startup apps in task manager. I cannot find what is causing Outlook to start on this machine. What's even more
weird is that it closes a few mins later. Any suggestions?

Hi,
What kind of reminders window? Is it the reminders window which pops up when there is an upcoming appointment? Would you please provide a screen shot so that we can understand this issue more clearly?
In addition, we may try to run a repair of Office installation to see the result:

It's recommended to download and install
Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office

Verizon Media Manager will not start automatically with Windows, even though it is set to do so.

Verizon Media Manager will not start automatically with Windows, even though it is set to do so. This started with the latest update. I see that the desktop icon for Media Manager now has a security shield on it, and it requires UAC confirmation when you start it, which I don't remember the old version doing.
One thing I noticed, msconfig.exe shows that "C:\Program Files\Verizon\McciTrayApp.exe" is set to start at Windows startup, but the desktop icon used to start Media Manager manually has a target of ""C:\Program Files\Verizon\Verizon Media Manager\Release\Verizon Media Manager.exe" Verizon Media Manager".
I don't remember what the previous version was, but this one is 9.4.86. It asked me if I wanted to update it a few days ago, and I said yes.
I am running Windows 7 Home Premium.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Try setting the startup option to off and then to on again. It looks to be pointing to a wrong location.
Attached is a partial screen shot of my msconfig setting.

Skype does NOT start up with Windows

When I boot up Windows, Skype refuses to load with it even though it is enabled to do so in the Skype settings.
Windows 7
Skype 6.21.0.104
Solutions tried: removing and reinstalling Skype and checking/unchecking the Start Skype with Windows checkbox.

Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Browsing History" if Firefox is closed because that prevails and prevents Firefox from opening tabs from the previous session.
If you use CCleaner then make sure that Session is unchecked in the settings for the Firefox application.

How can I make Thunderbird start auto with windows start-up

how can I make Thunderbird start auto with windows start-up

You can by placing a short cut in the windows startup folder, just like any other windows program.
However if you do you are likely to encounter problems as downloading mail while the anti virus is still loading and the network is busy announcing your machines arrival to the network ( which might be a network of one) and any of a dozen other program are loading is fraught with risk of timeouts and server disconnections as well as error messages that make little sense because they are about something that is still loading.
So the bottom line is sure you can, but if there are issues take it back out of there as a first step.

Stop Skype from starting automatically on Windows 7

Hello, I have seen some information regarding how to stop Skype from starting automatically on Macs, but for Windows 7, I have yet to see any information. If someone could provide me an answer as to how to stop Skype from opening as soon as I start my computer, that would be great. Thanks.

Composite effect don't start automatically with KDE4

hi,
so far so good my new Arch + KDE4 is running pretty stable, pretty good and wonderfully fast. However I have this [minor] issue of Compositte effect don't starting automatically with KDE4 log-on, I need to press Ctrl+Shit+F12 twice to activate it after all applications and Nepomuk loads or else I'll have a Plasma crash - which will reload itself with no significant issue to system stability.
KDE installed are plain KDE packages, not meta and my video card is a ATI HD5750 running latest 10.4-beta catalyst driver.

Some preferences are no longer there. Someone has posted a way to use Terminal to get the missing preferences. Check this: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1706604&tstart=105

Cannot sync Outlook 2013 calendar with Windows 8 phone

I recently bought a Nokia Lumia 1320 with Windows 8. I have tried to sync the calendar app with my Outlook 2013 calendar (on a Windows 8.1 PC).<o:p></o:p>
I have created a Hotmail account on Outlook and converted my original Outlook calendar to a list before copying it to the Hotmail calendar account, as instructed on various MS web pages (I cannot
enter hyperlinks here, your genius web site won't let me), but nothing appears on my phone. It was actually MUCH easier to sync with my previous Android phone and an iPad - so much for seamless Windows connections.<o:p></o:p>
After wasting many, many hours I noticed that if I
manually enter an appointment in the Hotmail calendar (in Outlook), then it
appears in the phone (and vice versa). However it does not appear for events that I have mass-copied over to the Hotmail account, including recurring events. This flies in the face of what the instructions say. There are far too many future
events for me to re-type, along with the danger that I might miss some. Why doesn't the mass copy (only of future, recurring and
active events) work?<o:p></o:p>
I have wasted way too much time on this and am beginning to deeply regret buying a Windows phone. Any help would be gratefully accepted.

Thanks for replying, Mike. I have set up two accounts on the phone, one is my 'normal' email account (non-Microsoft) and the other is my Hotmail account, which appears in Email + Accounts as 'Microsoft Account'. I am now at work (in Australia) and
don't have the phone with me, so I can't be sure of the exact words.
Anyway with the MS account there is only one check box - Email. In my endless trawling through the web I read somewhere that this 'primary' account automatically syncs the Calendar and Contacts, so the additional check boxes are considered redundant
(which seems pretty dumb - a user might not WANT to sync them).
I also set up an additional Hotmail account, which appeared as 'Hotmail 2', and this did have the sync Calendar and Contacts check boxes, but it will wouldn't do the job. I tried deleting the 'primary' account so I could use the secondary account instead
(and force the syncing through those check boxes), but it would not let me.

ITunes no longer starting automatically with iPhone

I have an iPhone 4S. Running iTunes 11.0.4.4 on Windows 7.
iTunes used to start automatically when I plugged in my phone as it was set to do.
have not changed the settings, and that box is still checked but now iTunes no longer starts automatically.
When I manually start iTunes, it detects my phone as normal.
When I first plug in the phone, the PC detects it and gives me the Windows dialog box asking what I want to do with the device.
I've unchecked the box, saved that, and rechecked with no changes.

Why does Thunderbird not work with Windows 8.1

I have used thunderbird now for about 6 years, for all my website accounts. During that time I have had very few problems, about 9 months ago I started using Windows 8, I transferred all my accounts from my old machines running on XP pro to new machines running Win 8 and thunderbird ran ok. I have auto updates running so I am assuming both thunderbird and windows are updating whenever! About 4 weeks ago I started experiencing major problems with Thunderbird, it would start then freeze, then it would start again then freeze, if I ran it in safe mode it would work for a while. Now it opens and freezes, the message at the top just says ' Thunderbird is not responding'. Even in safe mode now it will not work! I have tried uninstalling and re-installing, I have even tried installing an earlier version of Thunderbird, I Have deleted the profile and forced it to produce a new one, I have spent hours trawling different sites trying to find an answer, and you know what, the only conclusion I could come to was, nobody seems to care whether this problem is solved or not, so reluctantly I have had to give up and I moved all my accounts to Outlook, which works perfectly with Windows 8.1. I think that should have been the answer, right from the start of the problem!

The point is, it shouldn't matter if you're using McAffee or Norton or not using any anti-virus at all. Thunderbird works on XP. Thunderbird works on Vista. Thunderbird works on 7. But despite what the FAQ says, Thunderbird does _NOT_ work on Windows 8. This is a problem that many people are having and Mozilla _OUGHT_ to be able to fix it.
I hate to bitch because Thunderbird is free and it's a damned good program. But this damned good program that worked through three earlier iterations of MicroSoft operating systems is unusable on 8.1. Anybody who has any knowledge of user experience can tell you that a program becoming unresponsive at random for anywhere from 1 to 3 minutes is simply not acceptable.
This problem has been known for quite some time now. Is anybody in Mozilla support even looking at it?
